The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) says the price growth was most pronounced on lower priced single-detached homes, as demand grew in suburbs such as Langley and Surrey.
先月、”Vancouver real estate: home across Trout Lake listed $1.7 million, sells $870,000 over asking for $2.6 million”と言うことがあってびっくりしたけど。
今のトレンドって、Asking price を安く設定して、高く売るって感じですかね?
He said that at a mortgage rate of 5.5 percent, payment goes up 63.5 percent. At 7.5 percent, payment more than doubles, Major noted.
“I don’t think mortgage rates are going to 7.5 percent, but they could easily go back to 3.5 percent,” he said. “Could they go to 5.5 percent? That would mean someone paying $3,000 per month now will have to cough up $4,905 per month on renewal.”
Major said that what worries him are Canadians currently “stretching” to buy homes at 1.5 percent mortgages.
“What’s going to happen in five years if interest rates are 3.5 or 4.5 or 5.5 percent?” he asked. “They’re going to have to pay a lot more just to maintain their houses.”
